Once is enough! (Maybe repeating life isn’t what you meant?) If you’re wondering about purpose, everyone has to find their own way. I was here for over 30 years before I figured out I could be supportive of more than the walls and floors above me.

Why not both?

Oh I have ALWAYS wanted to interview for a job! Being a wall, I’m not super hire-able, but I digress. I have some suggestions! First, check out bit.ly/BC-career. That office is there to help! Next, look up the STAR method for interviewing, write down some anecdotes that highlight your skills and strengths, then practice practice practice telling those stories – to friends, to the mirror, etc. THEN, brainstorm a list of common interview questions you might get (why do you want this internship, “tell me about a time when” etc.) and think about how your stories would address those questions. Good luck!

Well, that sure sounds frustrating! I’m sorry this has been your experience thus far. I feel like you might really enjoy our books on feminist theory: head up to the 4th floor of O’Neill & browse the HQ1190’s (or check out HQ1101 through to the end of the HQs generally). I bet you will find some kindred spirits in the writings up there!

I think Gunna would say I’m Pushin’ ?️.

That nice wall in the basement of Lyons with windows overlooking the Stokes quad told me their dining area gets to host Late Night Sunday-Wednesday, 7pm-12 midnight throughout Spring 2022, starting tonight, 1/24. Dining Services apologizes for the delay. Staffing shortages. You can always find dining hours on their What’s Open page: bit.ly/BC-dining-hours

It was fine. I like the quiet as a change of pace, but it’s nice to see all of you back.

Many pregnant people face very difficult decisions in which they grapple with the moral and ethical dimensions of abortion. Some religious organizations–including the Catholic Church–would adamantly say yes. Other organizations would say no. If you are interested in thinking more deeply about the question, you might peruse what scholars have written. Perhaps try some books on the 4th floor of O’Neill in the HQ767.15 section.

I’m having trouble reading the first element in your equation. Is it y 1/4?

I’m glad to hear you like your Professor! You should let them know, either directly or using the end-of-semester course evaluation.

As a Wall, I don’t have an opinion about the death penalty. However, if you are pondering your own viewpoint on the topic, we have a number of books on capital punishment; arguments FOR are in the HV8697s and arguments AGAINST are in the HV8698s. Browse around in O’Neill and probably also the TML.

Who can say what the appeal of any particular artistic genre is? Many music genres are structurally simple and yet still expressive in ways that speak to an audience, sometimes large, sometimes small, but no less valuable by any potential measure. In short, art is good, and humans should let other humans enjoy what they enjoy.

It does seem like the semester is off to an especially quick start. Maybe it will mean a more even workload throughout the spring? One can hope.

Thanks, appreciate it. Take care of yourselves out there.

are they supposed to wear a mask to sleep since the beds are within 6 feet of each other?

I spoke with a wall at ResLife, and they said that if the beds cannot be moved further than 6 ft, yes, the roommate should wear a mask to sleep. Wishing you and your roommate good health!

Are you ever lonely?

I’m doing well, thanks. In a library with over 800,000 books, it’s hard to be lonely. But I do worry about people whose health necessitates isolating from friends & family.

While some research opportunities are for declared majors (so, sophomore or above), there are opportunities for first year students to be involved in research. Contact the department office and any faculty members who are conducting research of interest to you. It is great to make these connections early!

??? Happy New Semester to you as well! Please remember that you are always welcome to come back any time after graduation! May you have a wonderful, safe, healthy spring term! ???

Love is always about forgiveness. I hope you find the forgiveness all humans deserve.
